THE NEW SCHOOL LAW.

We clip the following synopsis Of the
lew school law from the Kimball I
Graphic: "The new school law as in
;roduced by A. Sheridan Jones andl
passed by the last legislature, is rad
cally different from the old law IN
many respects. The new law provides
for territorial board of public instruct
tion that will hereafter perform the
duties heretofore performed by the ter
ritorial superintendent. According toi
its provision each school district will
have definite boundaries and each
school district will have one member
of the township board and he shall be
called director and he shall have power
similar to the present moderator, and
has the further power Of choosing the
teacher for his district, subject to the
approval of the township board. The
township board consists of as many
members as there are schools, and an
amendment introduced by Mr.. Bogart
provides that when there is village or
city in any township, such village or
city shall have as many members in the
board as there are teachers in the
school. The directors are elected at
the regular June school election, each
district electing only its own member.
At the same time township treasurer
will be voted for where the civil town.
ships are not organized. Where the
civil townships are organized the town
ship treasurer shall be the school treas
urer, and the township clerk the school
clerk. Otherwise the board shall have
power to employ clerk not member
of the board and allow him suitable
compensation. The treasurer shall also
receive compensation established by
the board: At the June election there
shall be elected county superintend-
ent. The township board has power to
provide school houses, sites, fences,
ETC.; and to keep school property in re-
pair; to organize new schools when
needed; the president and clerk to con-
tract with the several members, and
sign orders for the teachers wages: tc
prepare and forward the reports requir
ed by law; to make such rules as may
be necessary for the proper mainten
| ance and management of system o.
d common schools in their township; tt
provide high school privileges in Ger
tain cases, and to levy taxes not to ex
ceed thirty mills on dollar. Th'
county clerk has power also to make
| levy of two mills on every dollar o
taxable property in the county and
| tax Of one dollar upon each voter il
the county. This last shall be know
as the county fund for the support o
schools. The fund raised for the sup
port of schools by the township lev
shall be apportioned $3.50 to each sub
district and the remainder of the fun
shall be distributed among the district
according to the humber of children o
school age in each. The sub-district
may also by a vote of its electors lev
further tax for the support OF thei
own school.

"It is a common expression OF mer-

we think of the working man VINO,
when work is scarce, would not try all

Merchant y.lg cha or manufacturer at such

Household.


The household is emphatically WOman'S
kingdom, and if that realm is well gov
erned the successful woman has brought
TO it rare qualities OF the heart and head z;
to be able to control with Intelligence
and unerring hand all the minutia Of
domestic economy that there be no
Earring, is to De fitted for one of the most
responsible positions of life. The pleas
ures of home aud the comforts of q
family are occupation for any mind, and
happy is that woman who, having chosen
the housewives place, enters heartily into
the requirements and does not feel the
obligation burdensome. The growing
tendency is to abolish fine-ladyism, and
if the woman movement had done moth
ing more than convince women that
dawdling through life was 8 miserable
way to waste existence, the agitation has
not been fruitless. The housekeeper's
pride is revived, and to have the house
the abode of order and taste, and be
able with ones own hands to
prepare delightsome meal are accounted
accomplishments. A company of artists
dined few DAYS since with Thomas Mast
The guests praised the cuisine, and the
cook, his eldest daughter, was brought
in and presented to the surprised guests,
who were assured that, unaided, she had
prepared the entire meal. At the same
dinner the two younger girls in white
caps and aprons served as mattresses.
The father was proud that his daughters
were able to contribute to his home
pleasure, and that the mother, relieved
of the burden she had borne, could enter
heartily into the intellectual pleasures of
the hour. This episode was alike credit
able to mother and to daughters. Toe
many mothers make the mistake of as
Stunning all the labor Of the household,
leaving their daughters to ignorant idle
ness, whereas they should be- taught
ignt household duties from the begin
ming, and habits OF neatness and order
instilled into taem, SO that in after years
mothers burden may be lightened and
they be thoroughly qualified tor their part
in life. Possessing these qualities and this
knowledge, our girls may aspire to the
possession Of home kingdom, where
there shall be order and not cunfusio3,
with neatness presiding il al depart
ments. No woman CSr expect well
trained subOrdiustes unless she possesses
these traits, and exercises careful su-
pervision III all departments from kitchen

VINO were out in the corridor, tore up
part of the brick pavement, but made no
attempt at an attack. At m!dnightsthe gas
was again turned on, and the great
building was Illuminated. No further at
tempt to force the cOnviCts into the cells
was made. The mutineers assembled in
the corridor and swOre and shouted. YSs-
terday mOrRing they went into the large
loom known as the Sunday-sChOOl room.
The riot alarm was given il The city and
more white troops went out to the peni-

A Clash of Courts.

ATLANTA, GA, April l5.-There is 8
conflict of jurisdiction between the state
and United States courts in Georgia
which is likely to assume Importance.
William NJ Miller runs q dlstillery in
DeEalb county, which he refused to close
in obedience 10 the prohibition law. He
was indicted therefor before Judge
Clark and was on trial when, by a writ of
baHea5 corpus, he was taken from that
court and the case was transfer
red 10 me Federal court. This
caused Judge Clark to write letter to
GOverB0r Gordon IN which he denounced
the action Of Judge Pardee as an infring-
ment on the states sovereignty, and
asked that the state take measures to pro-
tect itself against such encroachments.
He said "A9 understand it, it is against
the Law to convert writ of habeas corpus
into & continuance for defeating a crimi-
nal trial. The state will appear as party
TO the case in Judge Pardee's court and
claim Jurisdiction of the prisoner.
